Ans.
The codons show genetic codes, made up of triplet of nucleotides in DNA or RNA that code for specific amino acids. The different codes can code for a same a amino acid. When a substitutional mutation occurs in genetic material, it shows substitution of one nucleotide pair for another and leads to formation of a different codon.
The first mutation that leads to CAU to CAC, it will not show any potential damage as both CAU and CAC codons code for histidine amino acid.
The second mutation that leads to UGU to UGC will also not show any damage to protein as both of these codons code for cysteine amino acid.
The third codon, that results UCU to UUU will cause a potential damage to protein as UUU codes for phenyl alanine (an aromatic, non-polar amino acid) and UCU codes for serine (a polar amino acid).
Thus, the correct answer is 'option C).' as in a protein, substitution of serine with phenylalanine will lead to change in structure and function of that protein.
Greater genetic diversity, compared to asexual reproduction.
If you think about it, this makes sense because in asexual reproduction, an organism reproduces all by itself, and uses its own genome as the blueprint for its' offspring. However with sexual reproduction, two organisms come together, each contributing half the required chromosomes, and the offspring gets 1/2 it's genes from the mother and 1/2 it's genes from the father. Sexual reproduction allows for greater diversity because it doesn't just rely on mutations to add new diversity to the genepool.
a neap tide is just after the first or third quarters of the moon when there is the least difference between high and low water.
The method to reproduce a plant by burying a portion of its stem is called layering.

Answer:
Behavioral Genetics
Explanation:
Behavioral genetics or behavior genetics is a field of scientific study that make use of genetic methods to study an individual's behavior. In general, it is the study of the relative power and limits of genetics and environmental influences on behavior.
Studies have shown that one's behavior is greatly linked to one's genetics and environmental exposure.
